Another Question...dots Stemware

[kaseydee]

Should I get that in open stock? I don't know when I would use them. Most of the time we have more than 4 people over. I do think they are super cute though.:chef:

p.s. this is my last question regarding what I should order today :angel:

 

[chefann]

That's completely dependent on whether you'll use them. I didn't order them because I think they're too childish looking for an adult beverage. And we don't tend to drink wine here anyway. But I do think they'd be cute for desserts.

If you don't think you'll use them, but would like to have one for display, you could order a set with another (three?) consultant and then split them up. I was thinking of doing that with the Holiday plates.

I use all the dots stuff as my everyday dishes, so I LOVE the new stemware. I will be getting two sets (whenever they come - I can't wait!) in the SAT package and my director package and I'm contemplating buying a sample of that because I may use more than 8. I can't wait to get them!

I'm with Becky - I use the dots SA as my everyday dishes, and these will totally complete my set! Can't wait to get them!!

You know at Conference I wanted to touch & hold them to see how heavy & if they are very thin....:blushing: lol I don't even know if I made sense. Can anyone answer...

I was thinking the same thing. What's the weight of them? Some are very thin (I know what you mean). They arent going to ship easily I am sure (due to the fragilness of them). We shall see.

Oh that would have been a good idea. I wish I would have done that. Just by looking at them, I liked how it was a pretty long stem. That makes them look different than any of my other wine glasses.

Oh boy - I sure do make it sound like I drink A LOT of wine!

That's funny you mention the stem length. A cluster-mate of mine who didn't attend conference mentioned that the stems looked long, and apparently the current trend among wine buffs is for short stems, or even stemless glasses. She was tentatively disappointed with them, but was reserving her final opinion until she sees them in person.

I'm sure someone will post that they played with them...

My Dh's impression was that the stem was too long. He pointed out that it's the ones with long stems that we break the most.

yeah, I guess I kind of wondered that too.

 

[Jennie4PC]

I thought about getting a 2nd set. I still need to get me a 2nd set of the dots dinner ware so that I can use them as my everyday dishes.

 

[ljeffries]

I played with the glasses!! IMHO - they are great for the $$. I hate really thick wine glasses and would say that these are pretty much just right. I have Riedel glasses and love them, but think that the dots glasses would make cool 'special occasion' glasses. They looked and felt like very good quality.

 

[vwpamperedchef]

Thanks Lamar, that about settles that!

 

[chefshawna]

I think the dots look great!! I am getting a set for myself. I have been wanting some wine glasses, now I can get these and write them off! LOL

 

[PChefPEI]

NEW STEMWARE???? And I was doing so good at not checking out what the new products were..... I think my customers will love them, but I'm not much for wine, so probably won't be for me.

 

[erinyourpclady]

I am so wishy washy on these! I have lots of glasses and yes to answer your question..I am a wino! LOL!! I LOVE the dots though they are not my everyday. The thing is...I will never take these to a show! I have in my years broken more stuff then I wish to admit...but it is a lot. I am just not sure..............
